摘要:The Capstone Chemical Process Design Course instructors engaged with Writing Across the Curriculum to develop and then provide writing seminars for students taking the second blended learning iteration of the design course to address needs identified by students in a pre course skill self assessment. The goals of this initiative were to further develop students’ technical writing abilities, encourage ongoing writing during the course, and to help students develop better strategies to prepare preliminary and final design project reports. Students’ attendance and reaction to the voluntary seminar sessions were measured as part of an arms length survey and used as input to the course continuous improvement process. The results and follow up steps are reported.
